Bougainvillea Barbados

We stayed here the night we landed, before heading out to where we were staying for the whole week, but I would definitely stay here for longer if given the opportunity. The food of the restaurant was amazing, the ladies at the spa were so accommodating for a scheduling conflict for our massages, the sand is beautiful and the rooms were great. It had a little kitchen and some snacks for us when we showed. Wonderful (short) stay.

I don’t like being played. No one does when coming to a new place. Highly rated place so we were a bit stumped when they said our king bed 2nd floor room was broken. Apparently beyond repair, to me sounds like they gave our room away. We are now in a ground floor with two beds not king we specified and a pissed of partner. So I made the comment that I liked ground floor rooms, not knowing much of anything. My wife instantly said no. Now two hours later she went back, I am her husband writing the review, “your husband wanted the ground floor. They are not sure if they can get the type of room we asked for, must have been catastrophic damage. Not only played but thought as a fool. Hotel grounds are lovely !

Second time staying at this hotel and it did not disappoint. Great staff and facilities. I always feel like we get good value staying at this hotel. They are especially kind to our young daughter and make us feel like we’ve been able to share a special family holiday together (house keeping staff in particular deserve a shoutout and Chris in water sports)

Really impressed with our stay in Bouganvillea. The hotel is on one of the prettiest beaches we saw during our stay in Barbados. The pool area was very relaxing, with the right level of background music from the bar. Service at the pool bar was generally great though could be slow at busy times - cocktails are all made fresh to order. The beach is spectacular, and a sunbed can always be found. The sea was really rough when we were there (November) so may not be suitable for kids. Further up the coast was much calmer but then you're moving towards busier areas. The rooms are well appointed, with a big and powerful shower with reliable heat and useful kitchenette to have breakfast, lunch or drinks on the balcony. Key cleaning and cooking equipment is provided. The on site restaurant Calabash is also really good and good value for money - useful for lazy lunches or dinners without leaving the resort. Snacks can also be ordered to have around the pool area or takeaway. Taxis are aplenty to get to and from St Lawrence Gap - the nearest area for dinner and drinks. Standard fare was 15USD per trip, so useful to plan that in. It is walkable, though along a main road. VR minibuses are every couple of minutes along the highway, about 5 minutes from the hotel front. A supermarket is walkable on the edge of Oistins. It's not a full 5 star but I think it's value for money. For example, the rooms could do with some TLC and use of better quality fabrics for the bedding. But I would come back so that gets the 5 from me!

Nice boutique hotel/timeshare property. Pool was nice, beach front was great, and it had a small restaurant for all meals. There was also great dining options not far from the hotel. Great location on Oistins Bay!
